Many are expressing concern about the future of Christian youth today. What can we do to help ensure they will keep their evangelical faith once they graduate from high school? Can Christian apologetics provide an educational solution? Developing A Christian Apologetics Educational Program explores issues certain to be encountered by secondary school educators who want to teach apologetics as a distinct subject of study either as a part of a Christian institutional or home school curriculum. This book helps the apologist and educator blend their skills to soundly integrate the two subjects. A solution is sought by providing a background and rational for implementing an age-level appropriate apologetics course at this critical level of Christian education. This book is designed as a text to supplement those used in Christian education or applied apologetics courses; each chapter successively builds upon the other to help develop an educational philosophy that supports the inclusion of apologetics in the curriculum. A model is explained and materials are given to support the development of a curriculum in Christian Apologetics Education at the secondary level. Practical ideas are explored and a sample unit of instruction is supplied to help the educator develop an evangelical approach to education that is in the classical apologetic tradition. ""There is nothing like this on the market. It fills a much-needed gap in the apologetic market. Dr. Potter offers a clear, correct, and comprehensive overview of how to develop an apologetics education program. Nothing is needed more in our churches and schools than this to stop the hemorrhaging of the loss of our young people who are going out into the enemy camp with no real preparation to meet the challenges. Every pastor, teacher, Christian educator, and parent needs a copy of this book."" --Norman Geisler Distinguished Professor Apologetics Veritas Evangelical Seminary ""We entered the Adult Sunday school class and were surprised a State University student was the teacher. We had raised eyebrows going in, but left awestruck with Doug Potter's teaching. We found Doug to be an incredible Bible scholar. For many years Doug's vision has been to provide a scholarly work to assist Bible teachers teach future generations to defend their Christian faith. I heartily recommend this book, a useful tool for every Bible teacher."" --Timothy L. Heaton Professor of Education Cedarville University, Cedarville, Ohio Douglas E.
